A former University of Louisville football player has filed a lawsuit against the school and head coach Charlie Strong, claiming he was coerced into lying about the cause of his injuries after being beaten by two teammates.

The lawsuit, filed in Jefferson Circuit Court on Dec. 21 on behalf of Patrick Grant, alleges that Grant was attacked by two teammates on Oct. 24, 2010 in the locker room at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium and beaten “so badly that he required immediate, urgent care and nearly lost his left eye,” according to the suit

Re: Former Louisville Player Brings Lawsuit Against Louisville and Charlie Strong

This will never go to court. even if this claim is true, this guys attorney knows that the testimony from coach strong and a university rep will be taken over a player seemingly trying for a payday. the same player who saw the two individuals who purportedly afflicted the damage get acquitted of charges. this wont affect charlie one bit. he has a flawless record.
